Josie Mitchellβs sister Laurel thinks sheβs come home to pitch in with the apple harvest and save the family orchard. Her brother-in-law Nate thinks sheβs there to talk the overworked, very pregnant Laurel into finally selling the family business. The orchardβs new manager Grady Mackenzie just thinks sheβs trouble with a capital T. Theyβre all right . . . and all wrong. Because no one really knows what drove Josie from home in the first place. Why sheβs never come home before, even for her own fatherβs funeral. Why she pushes herself so hard . . . and what sheβs running from. And nobody, not even Josie, is prepared for the surprising new fruit sheβll find on her last trip home.
